Dress Code

Students at IB adhere to a dress code to eliminate distractions, demonstrate discipline and make a unified presentation of their class together with their peers. Our dress code is specific (each level wears a designated color) but also flexible (leotard style is not designated) to accommodate the needs and budgets of our students and families. Leotards should be simple, solid-colored and not feature attached skirts or excessive strap designs. 

​

Students wear their class leotard at the End of Year Demonstration, so class color must be exact. (Feel free to ask for IB's designated leotard colors at the Sock Basket - they have options that match all of our levels. 

​

See below for the dress code specifics for each level, as well as men's and supplemental class requirements.
